I will try this today with my own personal kanban board. I do find myself with cards moving back and forth a lot. The way I've dealt with "Cancellations" is I have a list called "Waiting" where I stick tasks that are blocked. Sort of like pending review but it could also involve waiting for a resource, a response, etc.
I think if I implement cancellations with details it could help me figure out what processes are broken that caused fires(i.e. this report is suddenly due, overriding everything else. Did I miss a memo? Do we have a solid process for anticipating these sorts of reports in the future? etc.) I could then go back during some planning time to view what needs some brain time.
Thanks for suggesting this!
- haolez 7y agoThere is another hidden benefit: sometimes a ticket that is moving forward and backward is a fat ticket that should have been a few thinner ones. When you recreate a ticket that was cancelled, you are compelled to review its scope and adjust accordingly.
